 "Broken" by Lifehouse

The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time

(This relates to how I feel about how I dwell on tomorrow a lot more often then I should, and it reminds me it is another thing to pray about.)
I am here still waiting though i still have my doubts

(Doubts are natural, we all have them and I do not think theres anything wrong with doubts in life yet also think positive too, think about all the positive things in our lives and try not to doubt as much.)

I am damaged at best, like you've already figured out

(I believe everyone has things in their lives which have caused damage, they are things to be sensitive about yet talk about and let others know about and as time goes on to move on from and to learn the lesson God wanted to be learned to help grow in strength and help us with obstacles later in life.)
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing

(Somtimes I let things get to me and I feel like I am falling apart because of those things. I think this will always be a part of my life but another part of my life will be bringing myself up, praying, and knowing Gods there. I love my friends who accept that sometimes I do overreact about things yet they know I do not blame them about things. I appreciate those who are in my life and knowing I tend to be down about some things and yet I am good in the end. Friends who encourage and say positive things and are sympathetic, they help a lot, friends who ask you to talk about things. I have a few of them in my life, we all react to troubles differently and I am helped the most by those who ask to talk about it and hear me out and offer help. I am lucky to have friends like this who also pray.)
With a broken heart that's still beating

(I think all our hearts are a little broken from friends who left, who changed, family whose passed, friends who have passed.)
In the pain, there is healing

(Healing is from ourselves, from friends, from God, from famliy.)
In your name I find meaning

(In Gods name.C:)
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on

(Holding on to the good too and the fact that God loves me.)
I'm barely holdin' on to you

(God, sometimes I feel like I am falling away but then I know, Gods always there and always with me no matter what.)

The broken locks were a warning you got inside my head
I tried my best to be guarded, I'm an open book instead
I still see your reflection inside of my eyes
That are looking for a purpose, they're still looking for life

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
with a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain (in the pain), is there healing
In your name (in your name) I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
I'm barely holdin' on to you

I'm hangin' on another day
Just to see what you throw my way
And I'm hanging on to the words you say
You said that I will be OK

The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone
I may have lost my way now, haven't forgotten my way home

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
with a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain(In the pain) there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),
I'm barely holdin' on to you

I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),
I'm barely holdin' on to you

If you are curious, I will finish this.C: Right now I am watching the ending of Pride and Prejudice which is adorable.:P (The one with Keira Knightley of course!) I love the picture, the person filming did a marvelous job. This movie always makes me smile. When I am down I find things which make me smile or take my mind off why I am down. Right now what is best for me, these are tips I suppose if you are ever down... 

• Cry about it. Let it out.
• Vent about it, write in a blog or in a diary, talk to God or a close friend or family member who will listen.
• Listen to songs which relate to the emotions.
• Make yourself smile, do something which makes you smile.
• Take your mind off the thing bothering you.
• Turn off my phone so I can focus on bringing myself back up, praying and simply knowing theres a lot of good and positive in this world and in this life, a lot to be thankful for and blessed about, a lot to appreciate.
• Do not go on Facebook because it tends to make one dwell.
• Just take a day or a moment in the day for yourself. Love yourself more, figure things you like about yourself.

That is all I can think of for now, bear with me.:P I wrote the above to show I am relating to the song in my way, my thoughts on the lyrics. I think we all translate songs differently for our different experiences I feel music does help though. Have a beautiful day or night or afternoon and if you need to talk about something bothering you, let me know I will give out my email. I will hear you out and or give advice, let me know the most helpful reaction and I will try and be there for you.<3 i="i">
